This garment is made to help a deformed back look straight. It also cuts down on making the large side of you back from getting sore and bruised. 
     This garment will help people with scoliosis to feel more normal and builds their confidence. It is also very comfortable and can be worn over a brace.

This shirt is made to make a deformed back look straight. It has 2 backs, the inner back has 2-4 inch look Velcro strips 12.5 inches long on the right and left side so a person can use it for a left or right side hump.

The hip pad and shoulder pad can be used for the right or left side also. This shirt is made of all stretchable material. A woman or man can wear it from and are available in sizes from Medium to 2XL. The pads are made of sheep skin 1 inch smaller so when you put the pad holder in it will conform to the back better.

The back of the pad holder has 2-4 inch hook Velcro sewn on it to fasten it to the inner back. There is also 2 flaps sewn on each side seam on purpose to close over the pads and will shut with a lynch hook on 1 side. The front and back of shirt has an open zipper for easy access

This shirt cuts down on sore and bruised backs because of sitting on a straight back surface only one side of your back rests on the surface. I like a medical cosmetic shirt that builds your confidence, cuts down on stress and depression trying to look normal. You can wear this alone, under your clothes and over a brace.

Pre-Teen and Teens can wear this shirt only smaller, from sizes 10-16. There are millions of people with Scoliosis that just want to look and feel normal.
